1. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Provine Group is a newly established research group in the Pandemic Sciences Institute (physically based within the Centre for Human Genetics) that is focused on unravelling the mechanisms regulating vaccine-induced immune responses – with focuses on both T cell and B cell responses. Two major focuses in the group are (1) identifying the differential regulation of immunity induced by different vaccine technologies (e.g. viral vectors, mRNA vaccines); (2) utilizing samples from individuals on immunosuppressive medications to identify pathways critical for regulation of vaccine-induced immunity.

Application Deadline: 31-Jul-2024
14. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The arms race at the plant-pathogen interface is a fascinating field of biology that can deliver important new strategies for crop protection. Within this ERC-funded project, we used chemical proteomics to discover secreted plant proteins of Nicotiana benthamiana that are manipulated by Pseudomonas syringae during infection (e.g. Sueldo et al., New Phytol. 2024) and used artificial intelligence (e.g. Homma et al., Nat. Comm 2023) to predict pathogen proteins that might be responsible for this manipulation. This project aims to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underpinning extracellular manipulation of the host during infection. You will use co-immunoprecipitation to verify predicted protein-protein interactions and establish enzymatic assays and activity-based labelling to demonstrate the effect of target manipulation. You will use reverse genetics to deplete the components from both plant and pathogen to demonstrate their importance in pathogen virulence and plant immunity.
